This Dufour 31 page brings the main rigging-planning information together so an owner can move from an early estimate to a checked specification. Mast-and-boom guidance is shown as an additional reference only, keeping a possible spar replacement separate from the normal standing-rigging scope. Even apparently standard production boats can acquire different fittings over time, so photographs and measurements from the current rig are more useful than relying on the model name alone. To turn the model guide into a manufacturing specification, measure the existing stays and confirm terminal forms, pin sizes, turnbuckle threads and the exact way the forestay connects to the furler.
